Do you have more than one drive?
I remember it not working for me once trying to erase LILO, however I
have 3 disks, mixed SCSI and IDE, so it was writing to a different
disk.
I'm not sure how to specify the disk using fdisk. I just changed the
BIOS settings and temporarily "unhooked" the drive I didn't need in the
BIOS, so that fdisk would write to the drive I wanted it to.

I've often read advice to leave the first partition on the first disk
to DOS as long as you still have Windows. Just a 20 MB partition with
old DOS 6.22 will do.

Grub probably also has an uninstall command. Do a search on "GRUB boot
disk". That's what I used, to set up Grub. It's actually quite simple.
